Galata Acquisition Corp. Announces Updates to Its Proxy Statement/Prospectus and Extraordinary General Meeting in Connection with Its Proposed Business Combination with Marti Technologies Inc.

Galata Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) announced today updates to its proxy statement/prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 22, 2023 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) in connection with the extraordinary general meeting of the Company scheduled to be held on July 5, 2023 (the “Meeting”) to, among other things, approve the proposed business combination with Marti Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Marti”).

The Proxy Statement/Prospectus understated the estimated Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Ordinary Share”), redemption price per share. Based on the fair value of marketable securities held in the Company’s trust account as of March 31, 2023, the estimated redemption value per share is $10.46 per Class A Ordinary Share, not $10.26 per Class A Ordinary Share, as previously disclosed in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

In order to allow investors additional time to consider the change in estimated redemption value, the Company is extending the deadline for holders of Class A Ordinary Shares to complete procedures to elect to redeem Class A Ordinary Shares (the “Redemption Deadline”), which was initially scheduled for 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 30, 2023, to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 5, 2023. In connection with the extension of the Redemption Deadline to July 5, 2023, the Company plans to open the Meeting as scheduled on July 5, 2023, at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, subject to a quorum as set out in the Company's amended and restated articles of association, being present at the Meeting and then, with the consent of the Meeting, immediately adjourn the Meeting to July 6, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. New York City time at https://www.cstproxy.com/galatacorp/2023.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This communication contains statements that are not based on historical fact and are “forward-looking statements’’ within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For example, statements about the expected timing of the completion of the proposed business combination, the benefits of the proposed business combination, the competitive environment, and the expected future performance and market opportunities of the Company and Marti are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements by terminology such as, or which contain the words “will,” “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “possible,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and variations of these words or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Actual results may differ materially from the expectations expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements as a result of known and unknown risks and uncertainties.

These forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company and its management and Marti and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain and are subject to a number of risks and assumptions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company and Marti’s control, are difficult to predict, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. Known risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the business combination agreement; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company, Marti, the combined company or others following the announcement of the proposed business combination; (3) the inability to complete the proposed business combination in a timely manner or at all (including due to the failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of the Company or to satisfy other conditions to closing); (4) changes to the proposed structure of the proposed business combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations; (5) the ability to meet applicable stock exchange listing standards at or following the consummation of the proposed business combination; (6) the risk that the proposed business combination disrupts current plans and operations of the Company as a result of the announcement and consummation of the proposed business combination; (7) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management and key employees; (8) costs related to the proposed business combination, including the amount of cash available following any redemptions by Company shareholders; (9) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (10) the possibility that Marti or the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business and/or competitive factors; (11) risks relating to the Company’s and Marti’s respective operating histories and the mobile transportation industry; (12) risks associated with doing business in an emerging market; (13) risks relating to Marti’s dependence on and use of certain intellectual property and technology; and (14) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the registration statement filed by the Company with the SEC in connection with the proposed business combination. The foregoing list of important factors is not exhaustive and you should carefully consider the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC.

Nothing herein should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Except as may be required by applicable law, neither the Company nor Marti undertakes any duty to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, new events, future events or circumstances, or otherwise.
